Caching & Optmization of XF-Pro?

[FZee]

Hi,

I own two sites . One is php based file sharing and the other is XF ( this one ofcourse! )

my other site uses php's APC Cache to cache the php files & i asked my host to tweak the DB to make the server fast.

What sort of Caching software can i install for this script ? (XfileSharing)
Also what tweaks can be done to keep the server speedy....

(Im keeping dl.cgi because i want to restrict speeds on my 100mbps line or is that a bad idea to enable direct links ? )

Thank you Sibsoft

FZee:

XFS Pro 1.7 doesn't work under mod_perl, so wait for a future release.

(Some other possible accelerators are FastCGI or PP/Speedy, but I haven't
tried those yet.)

Some tricks to take some load of your server.
- Use CDN solution on static content as images, css, swf, js
If you do it right, you can switch between cdn and regular by changing a line in a modifed XFS config "asset_url" "images_url"

- Use website analyzers/optimizers to tune your website and find errors.

- use nginx mod until they make xfs work with mod_perl
Then you dont use much perl at all except for loading the file page.

Hi,

According to my statistics software :: Munin ::

I have paid for a 100MBPS Eth0 port which is ummetred.

for 7 days my software only report 40MBPS is used a

I have put DIRECT LINKS for all users . and unregistered.

So what can i do make sure my server use all 100MBPS speed ....

How many users can download with 100MBPS ?

*Bump*

Did anyone manage to replicate this issue ? ..... My traffic is dropping badly because my uploaders complain of low download speeds.

Alex Z is taking his time to answer my support email LOL

Yes , 100Mb (bits per second) umetered is what i get from my host.

i uploaded a sample.zip file on my root folder ..managed to get 600Kb/sec.

But the script itself never let anyone go that far.... 100kb/sec is the best you can get .

There's nothing wrong with apache since the CPU is idle at 2% average.

I don't know what else i can do next

100 KB/sec with direct links? That's extremely slow! Try other methods to ensure it's not related to your webserver.

In my case I'm able to download up to 2 MB/sec with difficulty. Via FTP I can get my full download speed, so I still think my problem is an Apache issue.

[FZee]

Yeah it is slow.

I use direct links for everyone. So im just trying to figure why this script can't even use the full 100mbps port or maybe i messed up some settings .

I dont know right now

try to upload big file into site root, download it through apache and measure speed. You will see the same speed as downloading through xfilesharing.
